Introduction 
¢ QUESTIONS: 


1.Do you care about your freedom? 


2.Do you know what freedom is from 
a legal perspective? 


3.Can you PROVE you are free ina 
court of law? 


..lets explore the answers to 
these important questions. 


What does the PRESIDENT say about FREEDOM? 


¢ President Barrack Obama, 
a lawyer, helped to answer 
some of these questions in 
his inauguration speech. 


Let’s watch it. 


¢ [Show Barrack Obama Inauguration 
Speech] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


“Happiness”? 


¢ QUESTION: What is the legal 
definition of the word “happiness” 
the President used in his speech? 


¢ ANSWER: The RIGHT to 
exclusively own PROPERTY and 


to exclude all others, including 
governments, from using or 
benefitting from the use of the 
property! 


“Property” = “pursuit of Happiness” 


¢ Inthe Declaration of Independence the word “Happiness” in 
the phrase “Life, Liberty, and pursuit of Happiness” has been 
equated by the U.S. Supreme Court as the RIGHT TO OWN 
PROPERTY. 
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created 
equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain 
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and 
the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, 


Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just 
powers from the consent of the governed, “ 


[Declaration of Independence] 


Any government that interferes or intends to interfere with 
the protection of PRIVATE rights and PRIVATE property 
therefore has the EXPRESS and/or IMPLIED goal of 
MALICIOUSLY making you: 


—UNHAPPY! 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 17 


“Property” = “pursuit of Happiness” 


¢ Fourteenth Amendment, Section 1: 
“nor shall any State deprive any person of life, 
liberty, OF Property, without due process of 
law;” 

¢ Meaning of “life, liberty, or property” in the above: 


“The provision [Fourteenth Amendment, Section 1], it is 
to be observed, places property under _the same 
protection as life and liberty. Except by due process of 


law, no State can deprive any person of either. The 
provision has been supposed to secure to 
every individual the _essential_conditions 
for the pursuit of happiness; and for that reason 


has not been heretofore, and should never be, construed 
in any narrow or restricted sense.” 


[Munn v. Illinois, 94 U.S. 113 (1877)] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


The essence of ownership is the “right to exclude” 


“We have repeatedly held that, as to property reserved by its 
owner for private use, "the right to exclude [others is] ‘one of 
the_most essential sticks in_the bundle of rights that_are 
commonly _characterized__as__ property.’ _" Loretto _v. 
Teleprompter_Manhattan_ CATV _ Corp., 458 U.S. 419, 433 
(1982), quoting Kaiser Aetna v. United States, 444 U.S. 164 
176 (1979). “ 


[Nollan v. California Coastal Comm'n, 483 U.S. 825 (1987)] 


“In this case, we hold that the_"right_to exclude," so 
universally held to be a fundamental element of the property 
right"! falls within _this category of interests that the 
Government cannot take without compensation.” 


[Kaiser Aetna v. United States, 444 U.S. 164 (1979)] 


[11] See, e. g., United States v. Pueblo of San Ildefonso, 206 Ct.Cl. 649, 669-670, 513 F.2d. 
1383, 1394 (1975); United States v. Lutz, 295 F.2d. 736, 740 (CA5 1961). As stated by Mr. 
Justice Brandeis, "[a]n essential element of individual property is the legal right to exclude 
others from enjoying it." [International News Service v. Associated Press, 248 U.S. 215, 250 


(1918) (dissenting opinion).

Chief Characteristics of “Property” 


6JUN2016 


That which belongs exclusively to one 


Term “property” extends to every species of valuable right 
and interest 


Property includes everything which is or could be the subject 
of ownership 


Even RIGHTS protected by the Constitution are property 


Includes: 
— RIGHT to control use of it by others 


— RIGHT to exclude everyone else from benefitting from its use in any way 
— RIGHT to penalize others for unauthorized use 


Use and control over your property in no way depends on 
another’s discretion or courtesy 


You can give your property rights away 
WITHOUT EVEN REALIZINGIT. .. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


The right to pursue happiness 


¢ By saying: 


—*“,.all deserve a chance to pursue 
their full measure of happiness” 


¢... The president was saying: 


—*_.all deserve the right to 
EXCLUSIVELY own property and 
deprive all others from using or 
benefitting from the use of the 
property (Form #12.025).” 


¢Why did Barrack Obama 
use the phrase: 


“ALL are free, ALL are equal.”

Why EQUALITY ts the foundation of ALL your freedom 


¢ U.S. Supreme Court: 


“No duty rests more _imperatively 
upon the courts than the 


enforcement of those constitutional 


provisions intended to secure_that 


equality of rights which_is_the 
foundation of free government.“ 
[Gulf, C. & S. F. R. Co. v. Ellis, 165 


U.S. 150 (1897) ] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Inference 


—You are ONLY FREE IF YOU 
ARE EQUAL to government. 


Inference 


—EVERY attempt to make you 
INFERIOR or UNEQUAL: 


»Turns government_into_a 
religion 


»Imputes an_ unconstitutional 


“title of nobility’ to the 
“United States” as a legal 
person 


»Turns you into a compelled 
worshipper and a SLAVE 


God’s Version of EQUALITY: The Golden Rule 


"Do unto others as you would 
have them do unto you.” 


[Jesus in Matt. 7:12, Bible, NKJV] 


THIS ts the “God given promise” 
that Obama was talking about! 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 07 


Corollary of the Golden Rule 
“You implicitly consent to any and 


every action to be done to you that you 
do to others when you injure someone. 
And because you consent, you can't 
claim an injury in return.” 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


Golden Rule: Old Testament Version 
Moses’ version of the above: 


¢ Deuteronomy 19:21 
— “Your eye shall not pity: life shall be for 
life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for 

hand, foot for foot.” 


¢ Leviticus 24:19-22 


— “If _a_man_causes_disfigurement_of_his 
neighbor, as_he has done, so shall _it_be 
done to him—_fracture for fracture, eye for 
eye, tooth for tooth; as _he_has_ caused 
disfigurement of a man, so shall it be done 


to him. And whoever kills an animal shall 
restore it; but whoever kills a man shall be 


put to death.’”

God HATES hypocrisy and INEQUALITY 


¢ What we want to emphasize is the 
following: 


HYPOCRISY is the same 


as INEQUALITY in 
scripture 


Hypocrisy 


HOW CAN I PROMOTE |” 
DEMOCRACY IF YOU 
MISSPELL IT. 
CORRECT IT NOW 
OR YOU'RE FIRED! 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 32 


God HATES hypocrisy and INEQUALITY 


¢ The ONLY thing Jesus 
EVER got angry at was: 


—The hypocrisy of the lawyers. 
—The INEQUALITY (Form #05.033) 


found in the statutes that God 
COMMANDED them to disobey. 


—The “privileges” and civil 


statuses (Form #13. 008) t that 


perpetuate the inequality. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 44 


God HATES hypocrisy and INEQUALITY 


“Woe to you, scribes [religious leaders] and 
Pharisees lawyers Form #05.047 

hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and 
anise and cummin [to the false god of 
government with your attorney licenses and 
your 501(c)(3) and “"privileged" tax 
exemptions, neither of which any positive law 
requires], and have neglected the weightier 
[most important] matters of the law [God's 
Law]: justice and mercy and faith [in God, and 
Truth]. These you ought to have done, without 
leaving the others undone.” 


[Jesus (God) in Matt. 23:23, Bible, NKJV] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


PEOPLE and GOVERNMENTS are EQUAL 


¢ “Behold, the nations [and governments 
and politicians of the nations] are as a 


drop in the bucket, and are counted as 
the small dust on the scales.” 


[Isaiah 40:15, Bible, NKJV] 
¢ “All nations [and governments] before 


Him [God] are as nothing, and they are 


counted by Him less than nothing and 
worthless.” 


[Isaiah 40:17, Bible, NKJV] 


PEOPLE and GOVERNMENTS are EQUAL 


“Arise, O Lord, 

Do not let man [or governments made up of 
men] prevail; 

Let the nations be judged [and disciplined] in 
Your sight. 

Put them in fear [with your wrath and the 
timeless principles of your perfect and 


Glorious Law], O Lord, 

That the nations may know themselves to be 
but men.” 

[Psalm 9:19-20, Bible, NKJV] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


PEOPLE and GOVERNMENTS are EQUAL 


“He [God] brings the princes [and 


Kings and Presidents] to nothing: He 


makes the judges of the earth 


useless.” 
[Isaiah 40:23, Bible, NKJV] 


How does God make Governments “Useless” 


You CAN’T govern people who are EQUAL. 


They NEED YOUR CONSENT in order for you 
to become UNEQUAL. 


Those who have consented are called 
“subjects” and they are inferior and unequal 
in relation to their rulers. 


No man in his right mind would or should give 


that consent (Form #05.003). 


Any system of governance based on 
INEQUALITY violates the USA constitution 
and turns government into an 
unconstitutional civil religion (Form #05.020), 
where obedience and worship are 
synonymous. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


How does God make Governments “Useless” 


¢ Therefore, greedy covetous lawyers 
have to abuse “words of art”, trickery, 
and deception to: 
— Make you legally UNEQUAL. 


— Fool you into volunteering to become a 
“subject”. 


— Hide the fact that they need your consent 
to govern. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


What God has to say about this 


“Indeed the the governments 
and the men who make them up in 
relation to God] are all worthless; 
their works are_nothing; their 
molded images [and their bureaus 
and agencies and_ usurious 
“codes” that are not positive law] 
are wind fand_ vanity] and 
confusion.” 


[Isaiah 41:29, Bible, NKJV] 


We all START out EQUAL 


¢ Declaration of Independence 
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, 


that all men are created equal, that they are 
endowed by their Creator [not by the 
government or us or a judge, but by their 
CREATOR] with certain unalienable Rights, 


that among these are Life, Liberty and the 


pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure [not 
GRANT or CREATE] these __ rights, 
Governments are instituted among Men, 
deriving their just powers from the consent 


of the governed...” 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


How Did You Become UNEQUAL? 


¢ What is the legal definition of an 
“unalienable right” ?: 


“Unalienable. Inalienable; incapable of 


being aliened, that is, sold and 
transferred.” 


[Black’s Law Dictionary, Fourth Edition, p. 
1693] 


¢ If you can’t LAWFULLY ALIENATE 
rights in relation to government, 
then how can you become 
UNEQUAL or INFERIOR to 
government or civil rulers?

EVERYTHING that is wrong with the present 
government is a RESULT of INEQUALITY 


EXAMPLES: 


6JUN2016 


Government claims the right to 
counterfeit money using the 
Federal Reserve but we go to jail 
when we imitate THEIR behavior. 


Government claims the right to 
steal money from you to pay for 
their “civil services” without 
having to take you to court but it’s 
a crime to do the same thing to 
them. E.g. “taxes”. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


EVERYTHING that is wrong with the present 
government is a RESULT of INEQUALITY 


EXAMPLES: 


6JUN2016 


Government claims a right to invade and 
destroy your privacy and yet IRS agents 
aren’t even required to reveal their REAL 
names or their contact information. 


Government claims the right to require YOU 


to apply for a “license” when you want to use 
THEIR property, such as a public roadway, 
but they refuse to enforce your EQUAL right 
to force them to waive sovereign immunity 
and become a target of enforcement when 
they claim a right over your PRIVATE property 
that you didn’t consent to.

EVERYTHING that is wrong with the present 
government is a RESULT of INEQUALITY 


EXAMPLES:

immunity but interferes with your right

ANYTHING they say or write but every 
time we communicate with them, we 
have to do it under penalty of perjury

What OBAMA censored from his inauguration speech 


¢ Did you notice that Obama DIDN’T tell you the 
WHOLE truth in his inauguration speech? 


¢ HERE is what he SHOULD have said if he 
wanted to tell you the WHOLE truth: 

— ALL are free BECAUSE they are EQUAL. 

— ALL are free BECAUSE they REFUSE TO CONSENT to 
become a SUBJECT, CITIZEN, RESIDENT, or 
INHABITANT. 

— ALL are free BECAUSE they DON’T SURRENDER THEIR 
RIGHTS OR SOVEREIGNTY to ANY GOVERNMENT or 
RULER. 

— ALL are free BECAUSE they DON’T trust ANYONE and 
ESPECIALLY A LAWYER to tell them what the law says 
and read it for themselves. 

— ALL are free BECAUSE they DON’T SUBSIDIZE or 
CONTRACT with lawyers like Obama and can explain and 
defend their rights in court by themselves. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 49 


Why God Says This is the ONLY way to be Free 


"| [God] brought you up from Egypt [slavery] and 
brought you to the land of which | swore to your 
fathers; and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with 


you. And you _shall_make_no_ covenant [contract_or 


franchise or agreement of ANY _ kind] with the 
inhabitants of this [corrupt pagan] land; you shall tear 
down their [man/government worshipping socialist 
altars.’ But you have not obeyed Me. Why have you 
done this? 


"Therefore | also said, ‘I will not drive them out before 
you; but they will become _as thorns [terrorists and 
persecutors] in your side and their [pagan] gods will be 
a snare [slavery!] to you.'" 

“So it was, when the Angel of the LORD spoke these 
words to all the children of Israel, that the people lifted 
up their voices and wept.” 


[Judges 2:1-4, Bible, NKJV] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Why God Says This is the ONLY way to be Free 


¢ “One who turns his ear from hearing the law [ God's law or 
man's law], even his prayer is an abomination.” 
[Prov. 28:9, Bible, NKJV] 


"This Book of the Law shall_not depart from_your mouth, 
but you _shall_meditate _in_it day and_night, that _you_may 


observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then 
you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have 


good success. Have | not commanded you? Be strong and of 
good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the 
Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” 


[Joshua 1:8-9, Bible, NKJV, 

IMPLICATION: If you aren't reading and trying to obey God's 
law daily, then you're not doing God's will and you will not 
prosper] 

"But this crowd that does not know [and quote and follow 
and use] the law is accursed.” 

[John 7:49, Bible, NKJV] 


"Salvation is far from the wicked, For they do not seek Your 
[God's] statutes." 
[Psalm 119:155, Bible, NKJV]

GOVERNMENT LIES 


¢ Now do you know why even the 
courts say you should NEVER rely 
on ANYTHING a politician or 
government worker says as fact or 
legal evidence of ANYTHING? It’s 


because: 


“Politicians prefer unarmed and 
illiterate peasants.” 


[SEDM] 


Necessary Precursors to Freedom 


¢ You can only be free if: 
— You know the law and regularly read and learn it.. 
— You know the legal definition of “property”. 
— You know that RIGHTS are property. 


— You know the two types of “rights”: Public and 
Private. 


— You know that the governments FIRST job is to 


keep the TWO types of rights SEPARATE and 
NEVER to convert between them without the 
express consent of the owner. 


— You know that if government won’t protect you for 
THEIR OWN abuses, crimes, or THEFTS, you have 
no obligation to hire them to protect you from 
anyone ELSE by becoming a “taxpayer”. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 53 


Necessary Precursors to Freedom 


¢ You can only be free if: 


— You know that RIGHTS that are UNEQUAL are 
PRIVILEGES and PUBLIC rights, rather than 
PRIVATE rights. See Form #05.030. 


— You have exclusive ownership and control over 
your own body and all property interest created 
through the use of your own body. You don’t share 
that ownership or control with any government 
EVER! 


— The courts recognize and defend your EQUAL right 
to “absolutely own” property and to exclude all 
others from using or benefitting from the use of 
your property. Absolute ownership means that 
ownership or the benefits of ownership are not 
shared with anyone else. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Necessary Precursors to Freedom 


¢ You can only be free if: 
— You know what kind of court you are in: 


» A CONSTITUTIONAL court that defends 
PRIVATE rights in the JUDICIAL Branch or 
» A FRANCHISE court that defends PUBLIC 
rights in the EXECUTIVE branch. Only 
public officers (Form #05.042) can use this 
court 
— Courts insist that all rights or interests in 
your property can only be acquired when 
the party asserting it produces legal 
evidence of your EXPRESS consent to 
surrender the entire property or some 
portion or interest in it to them. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


Necessary Precursors to Freedom 


— All property is CONCLUSIVELY 
PRESUMED to be PRIVATE property whose 
ownership is not shared with the 
government unless and until the 
government satisfies the burden of proving 
one of the following: 


» You hurt someone with it, in which they can 


take it away without your consent. 
» You consented to donate it to a PUBLIC use or 
purpose. 
¢ You know what kind of court you are in: A 
CONSTITUTIONAL court that defends 
PRIVATE rights or a FRANCHISE court that 
defends PUBLIC rights. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


Necessary Precursors to Freedom 


— Civil statutes and the PUBLIC rights that 
attach to them are not enforced against 
those who are not consensually domiciled 
on the territory of the government. 


— Everyone, including especially the 
government, understands and respects all 


components of the above. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Freedom is IMPOSSIBLE when 


They can compel you into involuntary 
servitude or fool you into unknowingly 
volunteering. 

There is NO PRIVATE property. 

You are ignorant of the law. 

The government has either ABSOLUTE or 


QUALIFIED ownership of EVERYTHING. This 
is the essence of socialism. 

They can withhold any essential government 
service until you consent to some specific 
thing. This is called “privilege induced 
slavery”. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


Freedom is IMPOSSIBLE when 


¢ They can define the terms on forms or 
compel you to submit forms. They will 
always define it in a way that benefits 
them and injures you and they will 
always PRESUME that you consented 


to submit the form unless you 
indicated duress. 
You are compelled to consent or 


presumed to consent to anything the 
government offers. Those who 


consent (Form #05.033) cannot claim 


an injury or standing to sue. 


Freedom is IMPOSSIBLE when 


—There is even ONE thing you 
absolutely MUST have from them to 
exist or live. Why? Because they 
can make you give up ANYTHING 
and EVERYTHING to get it, including 
ALL your freedom. 


Surrendering ALL rights for the sake 
of expediency is also called “The 
ancient system of pledging”. It is 
the origin of the phrase “pyramid 
scheme”.

my lord also has our herds of livestock. There 
is nothing left in the sight of my lord but our 
bodies and our lands. ‘9 Why should we die 
before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy 


us_and our land for bread, and we and our

for Pharaoh; for every man of the Egyptians 
sold his field, because the famine was severe 
upon them. So the land became _ Pharaoh’s. 
21 And as for the people, he moved them into 
the cities, from one end of the borders of 


Egypt to the other end. 22 Only the land of the 


priests he did not buy; for the priests had 
rations allotted to them by Pharaoh, and they 
ate _their_rations which Pharaoh gave them; 
therefore they did not sell their lands.

Introduction to Civil Law 


Civil statutory law is the means of regulating 
and controlling your PUBLIC conduct. 


The foundation of the civil statutory law is the 
requirement for consent. 
The civil statutory CODE (a “protection 


franchise:, Form #05.037) implements what is 


called “the social compact”. 
All “compacts” are contracts or agreements. 


To be the subject of the “social compact”, 
you have to volunteer. 


Those who volunteer are called STATUTORY 
“citizens” (Form #05.006) if they were born in 
the country and “residents” (aliens) if they 
were born in another country.

How you agree to the social compact/contract 


¢ “The _ rights of the individual are not derived from 
governmental agencies, either municipal, state or federal, or 
even from the Constitution. They exist inherently in every 
man, by endowment of the Creator, and are merely reaffirmed 
in the Constitution, and restricted only to the extent that they 
have been voluntarily surrendered by the [STATUTORY but 
not CONSTITUTIONAL, Form #05.006] citizenship [DOMICILE, 
not NATIONALITY] to the agencies of government. The 
people's rights are not derived from the government, but the 
government's authority comes from the people.*946 The 
Constitution but states again these rights already existing, 
and when legislative encroachment by the nation, state, or 
municipality invade these original and permanent rights, it is 
the duty of the courts to so declare, and to afford the 
necessary relief. The fewer restrictions that surround the 
individual liberties of the citizen, except those for the 
preservation of the public health, safety, and morals, the 
more contented the people and the more successful the 
democracy.” 


¢ [City of Dallas v Mitchell, 245 S.W. 944 (1922)]

Those who are not party to the Civil Law 


6JUN2016 


The act of consenting is called “choosing a 
domicile or residence”. 


The act of consenting to the civil law and 
becoming a statutory “citizen” or “resident” 
is a First Amendment choice of political 
association that no one can compel you to 
make. See Form #13.008. 


Those who don’t consent to the social 
compact or the civil law are called 
“nonresidents” or “transient foreigners”. 


Those who are “nonresidents” are still 
protected by the constitution and the 
common law, but may not avail themselves of 
the “benefits and privileges” of the civil 
statutory law. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


What others say about this 


These basic concepts behind the civil law are not unique or 
new 


The concept of domicile (Form #05.002) is behind them all. 


Most legal neophytes and freedom fighters misunderstand 
these concepts by making the following false statements: 
That ALL law is voluntary, both CIVIL and CRIMINAL. 


That STATUTORY civil law is the same as COMMON LAW. They are NOT. 
One is PUBLIC, the other is PRIVATE. 


That CRIMINAL law is voluntary. It is NOT. 


That you can unvolunteer WITHOUT changing your behavior or status in 
the government’s records. You need legal evidence to document your 
withdrawal of consent. 


That they can have any kind of “resident ID” such as a driver license and 
yet NOT be a statutory “person”, “individual”, or “citizen”. 


¢ Don’t be one of these people! 


¢ Let’s hear how other simplistic legal neophytes misrepresent 
these civil law concepts. . .

Video Intermission 


¢ [Show video] 


¢ Ben Lowry: Law is voluntary 
— He argues that there is no “universally applicable rule” and in fact there IS. 
It’s called the CRIMINAL LAW. 
— He sees society as a club or compact, but in fact the CIVIL law is the club 
or compact and he doesn’t understand the difference between civil and 
criminal law. This is a huge mistake.

Why Governments HATE those who are Equal or Sovereign 


¢ Governments and politicians HATE 
people who are sovereign or equal 
because: 


— They can’t be governed by the civil 
statutory law 


— They can’t be subject to income taxation. 


— According to God, they make governments 
“useless”. 


¢ Corrupt politicians and governments 
don’t like: 
— Being useless or worthless. 


— Not having your money to bribe voters 
with.

Sovereignty Defined 


¢ What is sovereignty? 


6JUN2016 


Sovereignty. The supreme, absolute, and 
uncontrollable _power_by which _any independent 
state _is_ governed; supreme political authority; 
paramount control of the constitution and frame of 
government and its administration; self sufficient 
source of political power, from which all specific 
political powers are derived; the _ international 


independence of a state, combined with the right 
and power of regulating its internal affairs without 
foreign dictation; also a political society, or state, 
which is sovereign and independent. Chisholm v. 
Georgia, 2 Dall. 455, 1 L.Ed. 440; Union Bank v. Hill, 
3 Cold., Tenn 325; Moore v. Shaw, 17 Cal. 218, 79 
Am.Dec. 123; State v. Dixon, 66 Mont. 76, 213 P. 227.

Sovereignty Defined 


¢ The requirement for consent is the foundation of all of 
our sovereignty as human beings. See: 
Requirement for Consent, Form #05.003 


http://sedm.org/Forms/FormIndex.htm 


¢ Having sovereignty means: 


— NO ONE can compel you in a civil statutory court of law 


without proving you consented to become a statutory 
citizen or resident. 


— The only remedy anyone has for your injuries is the 
common law. 


— The ONLY way you can LOSE rights are to injure the 
EQUAL rights of other sovereigns and thereby commit a 
crime. That is the basis for the criminal law.

¢ “Sovereignty” and “dependency” are mutually 
exclusive

Your Sovereignty 


Sovereign people: 
— Can only remain free if they are educated 


— Must learn to trust their own judgment and intellect above 
and beyond what the government or others, especially 
those in the legal profession, tell them 


— Take 100% personal responsibility for every aspect of 
their choices and actions and lives 


— Are skeptical about what people in government tell them 
because they are jealous for their liberties, as Thomas 
Jefferson said they should be 


— Do not depend on any government for any kind of 
handouts. See:

legal status, because if you do, you’re admitting that 
you aren’t “sovereign” and you are giving control of

and we want to make sure no one takes that ownership 


away from you!

Origins of Sovereignty 


¢ In our country, the people, not the government, are the 
“sovereigns” and the government exercises “sovereign 
powers” explicitly delegated to it by the people through a 
written Constitution: 


— Julliard v. Greenman, 110 U.S. 421 (1884): “There is no such thing 
as a power of inherent sovereignty in the government of the United 
States...In this country sovereignty resides in the people, and 
Congress can exercise no power which they have not, by their 
Constitution entrusted to it. All else is withheld.” 


Perry v. U.S., 294 U.S. 330 (1935): “In the United States, 
sovereignty resides in the people...the Congress cannot invoke 
sovereign power of the People to override their will as thus declared.” 


— Yick Wo v. Hopkins, 118 U.S. 356 (1886): “Sovereignty itself is, of 
course, not subject to law, for it is the author and source of 
law...While sovereign powers are delegated to...the government, 
sovereignty itself remains with the people.” 


¢ In America, “We the People” and not the government that 
SERVES them, are the “state”. THEY are the people owed 
allegiance, not the government or public servants 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


Origins of Sovereignty 


¢ In every political system, the “state” is the origin of all 
sovereignty 


¢ Definition of “state” IN AMERICA: 


“State. A people [NOT a “government”, but a PEOPLE] permanentl 
occupying a fixed territory bound together by common-law habits and 
custom into one bod olitic exercising, through the medium of an 
organized government, independent sovereignty and control over all 

ersons and things within its boundaries, capable of making war and 

eace and of entering into international relations with other communities 
of the globe. United States v. Kusche, D.C.Cal., 56 F.Supp. 201 207, 
208. The organization of social life which exercises sovereign power in behalf of 
the people. Delany v. Moralitis, C.C.A.Md., 136 F.2d 129, 130. In its largest 
sense, a “state” is a body politic or a society of men. Beagle v. Motor Vehicle 
Acc. Indemnification Corp., 44 Misc.2d 636, 254 N.Y.S.2d 763, 765. A_body of 
people occupying a definite territory and politically organized under one 
government. State ex re. Maisano v. Mitchell, 155 Conn. 256, 231 A.2d 539, 
542. A territorial unit with a distinct general body of law. Restatement, Second, 
Conflicts, §3. Term may refer either to body politic of a nation (e.g. United 
States) or to an individual government unit of such nation (e.g. California). 


[...] 

The people of a state, in their collective capacity, considered as the party 
wronged by a criminal deed; the public; as in the title of a cause, “The 
State vs. A.B.” 


[Black’s Law Dictionary, Sixth Edition, p. 1407] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 85 


Origins of Sovereignty 


¢ Ina monarchy, the “state” is the king 
or queen and NOT the people, who 
instead are “subjects” and NOT 
sovereigns. 
In an oligarchy, a small group of 
political leaders are the “state” and 
NOT the people under them, who 
instead are “subjects” and NOT 
sovereigns. 


Sovereignty and Delegated Powers 


¢ A government based on the equality in 
the Declaration of Independence and of 
DELEGATED POWERS is a government 
that: 


— Derives its powers from a “natural source”, meaning you as a 
human being. 


— Has no more rights or authority than the people it serves as 


human beings 


— Must operate in equity against other sovereigns as CO- 
EQUALS 


— May not assert superior rights of its own or impute INFERIOR 
rights to you 


— May not force you into a “franchise court” where you have 
inferior rights. If you end up in such a court, they have to 
dismiss the case and may not “presume” they have 
jurisdiction if you are NOT a franchisee 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


Sovereignty and Delegated Powers 


— May not lawfully change your civil status without your consent, 
or infer a status within a franchise agreement that you do not 
have or cannot lawfully have. Only you can choose your status, 
because that status is how you contract with and associate with 
others. Governments are established to protect your PRIVATE 
right to contract and associate. See: 


Your Exclusive Right to Declare or Establish Your Civil Status, 
Form #13.008 


FORMS PAGE: http://sedm.org/Forms/FormIindex.htm 


DIRECT LINK: hitp://sedm.org/Forms/13-SelfFamilyChurchGovnce/RightToDec!IStatus.pdf 
May not convert your private property or your labor to a public 
use, a public purpose, or a public office without your express 
consent or at least compensation. Another way of saying this is 
that their job is to protect mainly PRIVATE rights by keeping 
what is private SEPARATE from what is public. All governments 
are established mainly to protect PRIVATE rights, in fact. The 
first step in that protection is to keep them from being converted 
to public rights without the consent of the owner. 


¢ YOU OWN YOURSELF AND YOUR PROPERTY! 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 88 


Sovereignty and Delegated Powers 


¢ A government based on delegated powers cannot have any 
more powers from THE SOVEREIGN PEOPLE from whom it 
was DELEGATED authority. 


¢ Common law maxims of law proving this: 


— “Quod meum est sine me auferri non potest. 
What is mine [sovereignty in this case] cannot be taken away without my 
consent” 


[Bouvier’s Law Dictionary Unabridged, 8 Edition, pg. 2159] 
“Derivativa potestas non potest esse major primitive. 


The power [sovereign immunity in this case] which is derived cannot be 
greater than that from which it is derived.” 


[Bouvier’s Law Dictionary Unabridged, 8' Edition, pg. 2131] 


“Nemo potest facere per obliquum quod non potest facere per directum. 
No one can do that indirectly which cannot be done directly.”

Government Religion through Inequality 


¢ Any government that asserts any right or authority or power 
that is superior to a single human being is: 


A government that derives its authority from a SUPERNATURAL source, 
meaning a source that has superior powers to you as a human being, who 
is “natural” 


Operating as a religion, and demanding “worship” [obedience] 
Establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment 
Establishing itself as a pagan “god”. A “god” is anything or any one that 


has SUPERNATURAL powers, which claims your allegiance and 
obedience in the form of “worship” 


If it demands money, is demanding “tithes” to a state sponsored church 


¢ Religion is legally defined as the "worship”, meaning 
obedience, toward “superior beings” who have supernatural 
powers: 


Religion. Man's relation to Divinity, to reverence, worship, obedience, and submission 
to mandates and precepts of supernatural or superior beings. In its broadest sense 
includes all forms of belief in the existence of superior beings exercising power over 
human beings by volition, imposing rules of conduct [franchises], with future rewards 
and punishments. Bond uniting man to God, and a virtue whose purpose is to render 
God worship [obedience] due him [the PAGAN judge or civil ruler] as source of all 
being and principle of all government of things. Nikulnikoff v. Archbishop, etc., of 
Russian Orthodox Greek Catholic Church, 142 Misc. 894, 255 N.Y.S. 653, 663.

— Our Government Has Become Idolatry and a False Religion 
http://famquardian.org/Subjects/Taxes/Articles/Christian/GovReligion.htm 
¢ The above sort of state sponsored religion is IMPOSSIBLE if 

Christians take the approach that Jesus mandated towards 

government: 
“ And when the ten heard it, they were greatly displeased with the two 
brothers. But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the 
rulers of the Gentiles lord it [parens patriae/king] over them, and those 
who are great exercise authority over them. Yet it shall not be so among 
you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him _be your 
servant. And whoever desires to be first among you, let him _be your 
slave—_just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, 
and to give His life a ransom for many.” 
[Matt. 20:24-28, Bible, NKJV] 


¢ The ONLY type of government that God permits is one that 
serves Him AND the people, and not the other way around!

Government Religion through Inequality 


¢ Any government that establishes itself as a 
“religion” in this way is: 
— Destroying the foundation of the Constitution, which is 


equal protection and equal treatment: 


“No duty rests more imperatively upon the courts than the 
enforcement of those constitutional provisions intended to 
secure that equality of rights which Is the foundation of free 
government." 


[Gulf, C. & S. F. R. Co. v. Ellis, 165 U.S. 150 (1897) ] 
— Firing God as our protector and substituting a man, king, 
or “parens patriae” in its place, which the Bible forbids. 


“And when you saw that Nahash king of the Ammonites 
came against you, you said to me, ‘No, but a king shall reign 
over us,’ when the Lord your God was your king. [. . .] 


And all the people said to Samuel, “Pray for your servants 
to the Lord your God, that we may not die; for we_have 
added to all our sins the evil of asking a king [or political 
ruler above us] for ourselves.”

Waivers of Equality/Sovereignty 


¢ When a person forfeits their sovereignty or 
some portion of their property or interest in 
property, it is called: 
— “A waiver of sovereign immunity.” 


¢ Implicit in waivers of sovereign immunity is 
consent to be sued in EITHER: 


— Civil statutory/franchise court if you are a statutory 
“person”. 


— Common law court if you are a “nonresident”. 


¢ Waivers of sovereign immunity are described 
in 28 U.S.C. Chapter 97. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


How LIE-YERS distort “sovereign immunity” 


¢ LIE-YERS, | mean LAWYERS, will tell 
you that only GOVERNMENTS can 
have “sovereign immunity”. 


¢ THIS is FRAUD because: 


— All governments derive their power from 
authority DELEGATED from “The State” 
directly and the THE PEOPLE as 
individuals serving WITHIN “the State” 


while serving as jurists, voters, and 
“taxpayers”. 


— You can’t delegate what you DON’T have! 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


What are people called who waive sovereign immunity? 


¢ A person who has waived sovereign immunity is called 
any of the following: 
— “Subject” 


Statutory “citizen”. 


Statutory “resident”. 
Statutory “inhabitant”. 


Statutory “person”. 

Statutory “driver” under the vehicle code. 

Statutory “spouse” under the family code. 

— Statutory “taxpayer” under the tax code. 
If you don’t want to waive sovereign immunity to 
become UNEQUAL or INFERIOR, then you must: 


— Never describe yourself as any of the above on a government 
form. 


— Never use government property such as the statutory PUBLIC 
rights that attach to any of the above statuses in the franchises 
that grant those civil statuses.

Legal Implications of Giving Up Your Equality/Sovereignty 


6JUN2016 


The process of consenting to surrender your 
sovereignty is called “waiving sovereign immunity”. 


Waiving sovereignty turns PRIVATE into PUBLIC. 


Only by waiving sovereign immunity do you become a 
statutory “person”, or “individual” for whom the 
government can legislate and regulate under the civil 
statutory law. 


You can’t become a STATUTORY “person”, “citizen”, 


or “resident” UNTIL you consent (Form #05.003) in 
some way. 


If the government doesn’t procure your consent, they 
are STEALING and exercising an unconstitutional 
taking of PRIVATE property. The property they are 
“stealing” are the public rights and civil statutory 
obligations that attach to the CIVIL status of “person” 
or “individual”.

Constitution is a Wall Between PUBLIC and PRIVATE 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 99 


Separation Between Public and Private 


The Constitution is supposed to create and protect 
ABSOLUTE separation between PUBLIC property and 
PRIVATE property. 


You can’t be free if: 
There is no way to ABSOLUTELY own PRIVATE property. 
You ABSOLUTELY own no PRIVATE property. 
The government won’t RECOGNIZE your right PRIVATE property. 


You have to share ownership of your property with any government. This 
is called a “usufruct” or “moiety”. 


You can’t prevent the government from using or benefitting from your 
PRIVATE property. 


You aren’t allowed to place conditions on the GOVERNMENT on the use of 
your PRIVATE property. 


The government can take away your PRIVATE property without your 
consent.

between PUBLIC and PRIVATE property, see:

How Governments STEAL Private Property 
¢ They have to convert PRIVATE to 
PUBLIC without your knowledge. 


¢ They have bribe you illegally by 
offering a franchise (Form #05.030). 


¢ They have to surreptitiously make you 
PUBLIC OFFICER (“Straw Man” 


Form #05.042). 

¢ They have to play word games and 
equivocation to turn PRIVATE 
constitutional “citizens” or “residents” 


into a statutory PUBLIC civil franchise. 


How Governments STEAL Private Property 


¢ They have to confuse contexts 
and definitions of words between 
STATUTES and the 
CONSTITUTION. See Form 
#05.014, Sections 13.1 and 16.1. 


¢ They have to dumb you down on 
the law in public school. 


¢ They have to confuse you with 
untrustworthy publications. See:

THEM to produce legal evidence that: 


— You expressly consented in writing in a manner that YOU

— You had the legal capacity to consent at the time you 
consented. 


— You were either domiciled within the exclusive 
jurisdiction of the government in question at the time you 
consented or acted, or you were representing an entity 
that was so domiciled under Federal Rule of Civil

— All license applications, such as:

United States government corporation. 
PRIVATE people can’t lawfully use public 
identifying numbers without LAWFULLY 


changing their civil status. It’s called 
“impersonating a public officer”. It’s a crime 
under 18 U.S.C. §912. 

Only those LAWFULLY appointed or elected

The Right to Live WITHOUT Government 


In the preceding video, Judge Napolitano 
referred to our “Right to Live Without 
Government”. 


¢ The TYPE of government he was referring to 
is CIVIL government, not CRIMINAL 
government. The criminal laws do not 
require your consent to enforce but the civil 


6JUN2016 


laws do. 
Note that the judge ALSO said that: 


— Slaves have a right to escape slavery. This implies that if 
your government enslaves you, you can and should leave 
it. 

— States have a right to leave a union that binds them to an 
abusive or criminal national government. 


— YOU have a right to leave a government when it breaks 
it’s own laws. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


The Right to Live WITHOUT Government 


¢ In the context of YOU leaving a 
government and REFUSING to be 
CIVILLY governed, doing so ONLY 
when it breaks its own laws is NOT the 
only legitimate or valid reason. Other 
additional valid reasons: 

— If it violates God’s laws. 


— The costs of participating outweigh the “benefits” 
because the government has gotten TOO much into 
debt. 

— The laws it passes are unjust. 

— It refuses to recognize and enforce the requirement 
for consent in EVERYTHING civil that it does. A 
government that civilly rules WITHOUT consent is a 


TERRORIST government.

¢ The Declaration of Independence also makes 
it your DUTY to leave any government that 
refuses to do the ONLY job it was created to 
do, which is to protect YOUR PRIVATE rights. 


“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are 
created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with 
certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, 
Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these 
rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving 
their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That 
whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of 
these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish 
it, and_to_ institute new _[SELF] Government, laying its 
foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in 
such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their 
Safety and Happiness.”’

The Right to Live WITHOUT Government 


¢ The right to be WITHOUT a CIVIL government 
originates from the following: 


— Your First Amendment right to NOT associate with a 
group called “government”. You don’t need to be a 
member of the club called a statutory “citizen” to have 
this PRIVATE right. Being forced to join or be held liable 
for the “club rules” called “civil law” is called compelled 
association. 


— Your right to contract or not contract. Governments are 
CREATED to protect your right to contract or NOT 
contract. No one, including governments, can compel 
you to contract with any group including any 
government, or to become a party to the social compact 
called a statutory “citizen” or “resident”. 


— The legal definition of “justice”, which is the RIGHT to be 
LEFT ALONE. 


— The purpose of “government” identified by the founding 
fathers, which is protecting your RIGHT TO BE LEFT 
ALONE by EVERYONE, INCLUDING THEM.

“Justice” Defined 


PAULSEN, ETHICS (Thilly's translation), chap. 9. 


“Justice, as a moral habit, is that tendency of the will and mode of 
conduct which refrains from disturbing the lives and interests of 


others, and, as far_as possible, hinders such interference on the part 
of others. This virtue springs from the individual's respect for his 


fellows as ends in themselves and as his co equals. The different 
spheres of interests may be roughly classified as follows: body and 
life; the family, or the extended individual life; property, or the 
totality of the instruments of action; honor, or the ideal existence; 
and finally freedom, or the possibility of fashioning one's life as an 
end in itself. The law defends these different spheres, thus giving 
rise to a corresponding number of spheres of rights, each being 


protected by a prohibition. . . . To violate the rights, to interfere with 
the interests of others, is injustice. All injustice is ultimately directed 
against the life of the neighbor; it is an open avowal that the latter is 
not an end in itself, having the same value as the individual's own 
life. The general formula of the duty of justice may therefore be 
stated as follows: Do no wrong yourself, and permit no wrong to be 
done, so far as lies in your power; or, expressed positively: Respect 
and protect the right.” 


[Readings on the History and System of Common Law, Second 
Edition, 1925, Roscoe Pound, p. 2]

Authorities on Right to be LEFT ALONE 


¢ Definition of “government” by the founding fathers 


"Justice is the [SOLE] end of government. It is the end of civil 


society. lt ever has been, and ever will be pursued, until it be 
obtained, or until liberty be lost in the pursuit." 


[James Madison, The Federalist No. 51 (1788)] 


¢ U.S. Supreme Court’s acknowledgement of the above: 


"The makers of our Constitution undertook to secure conditions 
favorable to the pursuit of happiness. They recognized the 
significance of man's spiritual nature, of his feelings and of his 
intellect. They knew that only a part of the pain, pleasure and 
satisfactions of life are to be found in material things. They sought 
to protect Americans in their beliefs, their thoughts, their emotions 
and their sensations. They conferred, as against the Government, 
the right to be let alone - the most comprehensive of rights and the 
right most valued by civilized men." 

[Olmstead v. United States, 277 U.S. 438, 478 (1928) (Brandeis, J., 
dissenting); see also Washington v. Harper, 494 U.S. 210 (1990)] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 118 


Authorities on Right to be LEFT ALONE 


“[. . .] the Supreme Court has made it clear that compelling an 
individual to become a member of an organization with political 
aspects, or compelling an individual to become a member of an 
organization _which_financially supports, in _more_than_an 
insignificant _way, political personages _or_qgoals_which_the 
individual does not wish to support, is an infringement of the 
individual's constitutional right to freedom of association. _The 
First Amendment prevents the government, except in the most 
compelling circumstances, from wielding its power to interfere 
with its employees’ freedom to believe and associate, or to not 
believe and _ not associate; it is not merely a tenure provision 
that_protects public_employees from_actual_or_constructive 
discharge. “

Refusing to Be Civilly Governed is NOT “Anarchy” 


¢ Sometimes, corrupt public servants intending to 
intimidate and terrorize you may call those who refuse 
to be CIVILLY governed by CIVIL STATUTORY LAW as 
“anarchists”. 


¢ This allegation is FALSE and FRAUDULENT because: 


— An “anarchist” is one who has NO LAW and is therefore 
“lawless”. 


Since they don’t need your consent to enforce the CRIMINAL 
law, then you are NOT “lawless”. 


You can and should STILL govern your life CIVILLY under God’s 
Laws even if you refuse to be subject to the government’s civil 
laws. 


Even those who are NOT subject to the civil statutory law are 
still subject to the COMMON law as “nonresidents”. Hence, they 
can STILL be governed ONLY by the courts and ONLY when they 
injure a fellow EQUAL sovereign neighbor. Hence, they are not 
even lawless from a civil perspective. Enforcement of the civil 
statutory law is only a SUBSET of what civil courts are permitted 
to do.

Introduction 


In order to have rights, we must know what 
they are. 

If you don’t know your rights, then YOU 
DON’T HAVE ANY! 


There are TWO types of rights: PUBLIC and 
PRIVATE. 


WHO CREATED the right determines the 
TYPE of right being exercised: 


— Rights described in but not created by the 
Constitution are PRIVATE and unalienable. 


— Rights created by statute, also called “privileges”, 
are PUBLIC revocable franchises.

Socialism 


Socialism is government ownership or 
control of ALL property. 


Before you can FIGHT socialism, you 
have to understand: 
— The laws of property. 


— How PRIVATE property is lawfully and 
constitutionally converted to PUBLIC property. 


— How to litigate to defend against unlawful 
conversions from PRIVATE to PUBLIC. 


Therefore, we must learn the LAWS of 
property. 
A fool and his property are SOON separated. 


If you don’t know the laws of property you are 
a such a fool.

All statuses under the STATUTORY civil law are a public office, a public right, 
and what the courts call “publici juris”. See Form #05.042. 


A STATUTORY “civil status” is PUBLIC PROPERTY of and a CREATION of the 
government. Also called “publici juris”. 


They have a right to control and regulate the use of THEIR property. 
Examples of PUBLIC “status” include: 

“taxpayer” under the tax code. 

“driver” under the vehicle code. 

“spouse” under the family code. 


“person”, “citizen”, or “resident” under the STATUTORY civil law. 
Status under civil or franchise law is equivalent to “person” under contract law. 


You cannot INVOKE or USE a “civil status” under the civil or franchise law or 
pursue a “benefit” associated with the status without being SUBJECT to the 
civil statutory law or franchise (Form #05.030) that CREATED that specific civil 
status. 


Pursuing a specific civil status by filling out a government form/application is 
the method of effectively consenting to the civil STATUTORY law or franchise 
that created the civil status. See:

¢ All franchises are contracts between the government grantor 
and the applicant. 


“As a rule, franchises spring from contracts between the 


sovereign power _and_private citizens, made upon 
valuable considerations, for purposes of individual 


advantage as well as public benefit, and thus a franchise 
partakes of a double nature and character. So far as it 


affects or concerns the public, it_is publici_juris and is 
subject _to_ governmental control. _The_legislature_may 
prescribe the manner _of granting it, to whom it may be 
granted, the conditions and terms upon which it may be 
held, _and_the duty of the grantee to _the_public_in 
exercising it, and may also provide for its forfeiture upon 
the failure of the grantee to perform that duty. But when 
granted, it becomes the property of the grantee, and is a 
private right, subject only to the governmental control 
growing out of its other nature as publici juris. “

De Facto Government 


¢ A DE FACTO government is one that: 


— Imputes or PRESUMES a status or a CIVIL status to 
you that you do not have or do not consent to. This 
Is: 

» A THEFT of private property 
» A violation of due process of law. 


— Waives the domicile prerequisite to participation 
either by not putting it in the law or by waiving it as 
a matter of policy. 


— Is a CORPORATION and NOT a body politic, all of 
whose “citizens and residents” are, in fact, public 
officers within the de facto government and 
franchisees.

De Facto Government 


“de facto: In fact, in deed, actually. This phrase is used to 
characterize _an officer, a government, a past action or a state of 
affairs which must be accepted for all practical purposes, but is 
illeqal_or_illegitimate.__Thus,_an_office, a_ position or status 
existing under_a_ claim _ or color of right such as a de facto 
corporation. In this sense it Is the contrary of de jure, which 
means frightful, legitimate, just, or constitutional. Thus, an 
officer, king, or government de facto is one who is in actual 
possession of the office or supreme power, but by usurpation, 
or _ without lawful title; while an officer, king, or governor de 
jure is one who has just claim and rightful title to the office or 
power, but has never had plenary possession of it, or is not in 
actual possession. MacLeod v. United States, 229 U.S. 416, 33 
S.Ct. 955, 57 L.Ed. 1260. A wife de facto is one whose marriage 
is voidable by decree, as distinguished from a wife de jure, or 
lawful wife. But the term is also frequently used independently 
of any distinction from de jure; thus a blockade de facto is a 
blockade which is actually maintained, as distinguished from a 
mere paper blockade. Compare De jure.”

Rights Defined 


“Right. As a noun, and taken in an abstract sense, means justice, ethical correctness, or 
consonance with the rules of law or the principles of morals. In this signification it answers 
to one meaning of the Latin "jus," and serves to indicate law in the abstract, considered as 
the foundation of all rights, or the complex of underlying moral principles which impart the 
character of justice to all positive law, or give it an ethical content. As a noun, and taken in 
a concrete sense, a power, privilege, faculty, or demand, inherent in one person and 
incident upon another. Rights are defined generally as "powers of free action.” And the 
primal rights pertaining to men are enjoyed by human beings purely as such, being 
grounded in personality, and existing antecedently to their recognition by positive law. But 
leaving the abstract moral sphere, and giving to the term a juristic content, a "right" is well 
defined as "a capacity residing in one man of controlling, with the assent and assistance of 
the state, the actions of others." 


As an adjective, the term "right" means just, morally correct, consonant with ethical 
principles or rules of positive law. It is the opposite of wrong, unjust, illegal. 
A power, privilege, or immunity guaranteed under a constitution, statutes or decisional 


laws, or claimed as a result of long usage. See Bill of rights; Civil liberties; Civil Rights 
Acts; Natural rights. 


In a narrower signification, an interest or title in an object of property; a just and legal claim 
to hold, use, or enjoy it, or to convey or donate it, as he may please. 


A legally enforceable claim of one person against another, that the other shall do a given 
act, or shall not do a given act. Restatement of the Law of Property, §1. 


That which one person ought to have or receive from another, it being withheld from him, or 
not in his possession. In this sense "right" has the force of possession. In this sense 
"right" has the force of "claim," and is properly expressed by the Latin "jus." 


See also Conditional right; Correlative rights; Droit; Jus; Justice; Natural rights; Power; 
Recht; Vested rights.”

created by the state, and over which it has power of visitation

The Ability to Regulate or Tax the Use of Private 
Property is Repugnant to the Constitution 


"A_body politic,” as aptly defined_in_ the preamble of the 
Constitution of Massachusetts, "is a social compact by which 
the_whole_people_ covenants with each _ citizen, and each 
citizen _with the whole people, that all shall be governed by 
certain laws for the common good." This does not confer 
power upon the whole people to control rights which are 
purely and exclusively private, Thorpe v. R. & B. Railroad Co.., 
27 Vt. 143: but it does authorize the establishment of laws 
requiring each citizen [not EVERYONE, but only those who 
CONSENT to call themselves “citizens”] to so conduct 
himself, and so use his own property, as not unnecessarily to 
injure another. This is the very essence of government, and 
has found expression in the maxim sic utere tuo ut alienum 
non lzdas. From this source come the police powers, which, 
as was said by Mr. Chief Justice Taney in the License Cases, 
5 How. 583, "are nothing more _ or less than the powers of 
government inherent in every sovereignty, . . . that is to say, . 
. . the power to govern men and things.“ 

[Munn. v. Illinois, 94 U.S. 113 (1876),

Rules for Lawfully Converting 


¢ All property starts out as EXCLUSIVELY PRIVATE and 
beyond the civil control of government. 


It is VERY important to understand the simple rules the 
government must abide by in converting YOUR 
PRIVATE property to PUBLIC property. 
Any attempt by government to do any of the following 
in respect to one’s PRIVATE rights and/or PRIVATE 
property is THEFT and a taking of property in violation 
of the Fifth Amendment if the rules we will show you 
have been violated: 

— Asserts a right to regulate the use of private property. 


— Asserts a right to convert the character of property from 
PRIVATE to PUBLIC. 


— Asserts a right to TAX said property. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Supreme Court Rules for Lawfully Converting 


“Men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable 
rights,-'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness;' and to 
‘secure,’ not grant or create, these rights, governments are 
instituted. That property [or income] which a man has 
honestly acquired he retains full control of, subject to these 
limitations: 

[1] First, that he shall not use it to his neighbor's injury, and 
that does not mean that he must use it for his neighbor's 
benefit [e.g. SOCIAL SECURITY, Medicare, and every other 
public “benefit’]; 

[2] second, that if he devotes it to a public use, he gives to 
the public a right to control that use; and 

[3] third, that whenever the public needs require, the public 
may take it upon payment of due compensation.” 

[Budd v. People of State of New York, 143 U.S. 517 (1892) ] 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 150 


Summary of Rules for Converting 
PRIVATE property into PUBLIC property 


Description Requires consent 
of owner to be 
taken from 
owner? 

The owner of property justly acquired enjoys full and exclusive use and | Yes 

control over the property. This right includes the right to exclude 

government uses or ownership of said property. 


He may not use the property to injure the equal rights of his neighbor. For 
instance, when you murder someone, the government can take your liberty 
and labor from you by putting you in jail or your life from you by instituting the 
death penalty against you. Both your life and your labor are “property”. 
Therefore, the basis for the “taking” was violation of the equal rights of a 
fellow sovereign “neighbor”. 

He cannot be compelled or required to use it to “benefit” his neighbor. That 
means he cannot be compelled to donate the property to any franchise that 
would “benefit” his neighbor such as Social Security, Medicare, etc. 


If he donates it to a public use, he gives the public the right to control that 
use. 


Whenever the public needs require, the public may take it without his consent 
upon payment of due compensation. E.g. “eminent domain’. 


NOTE: There is only ONE condition, Which is #2, in which the conversion 
of private property to public property does NOT require compensation or 
consent, which is when the owner injures someone with it, and the taking 
happens AFTER the demonstrated injury.

Questions 


The only way you can lose your PRIVATE 
property without consent and without 
compensation is: 

— To DONATE it to a “public use” OR 

— INJURE the equal rights of others in the use of it 


¢ QUESTIONS: 


6JUN2016 


— 1. How did your PRIVATE property PRIVATE labor 
become a lawful subject of taxation? Taxation, after 
all, is the process of CONVERTING PRIVATE 
property into PUBLIC property. 


— 2. By what specific authority does the government 
regulate or control any aspect of the use of your 
EXCLUSIVELY PRIVATE property that you have 
hurt NO ONE with? 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Answers 


- ANSWERS: 


— 1. You can’t become a statutory “Taxpayer” as a 
state citizen without volunteering, and thereby 
DONATING your property to the government. See: 


Why Domicile and Becoming a “Taxpayer” Require 
Your Consent, Form #05.002 


http://sedm.org/Forms/FormIindex.htm 
— 2. Only by LAWFULLY VOLUNTEERING to assume 

the STATUTORY civil status of a franchisee (e.g. 
“taxpayer”, “citizen”, “spouse”, “driver’), ABSENT 
DURESS OR COERCION of any kind, can the 
government regulate the use of EXCLUSIVELY 
PRIVATE property. 

» In this way, you DONATE your private property to a 

PUBLIC use, public purpose, and public office. 


» If there was any duress applied to force you to 
volunteer, then the regulation becomes a form of 
THEFT.

— Refuses to identify EXACTLY which of the FIVE 
mechanisms identified in the preceding table was 
employed in EACH specific case where it: 

» Asserts a right to regulate the use of PRIVATE

The Federal War on Private Rights 


Since the founding of this country, a concerted effort 
has been underway by corrupted politicians to: 


Undermine the protection of private rights. 
Unlawfully convert PRIVATE rights into PUBLIC rights. 


Turn a DE JURE government into a DE FACTO government and 
thus, a private, for profit federal corporation in which all 
“citizens” and “States” are really just statutory “employees” or 
“officers” of the corporation. 


The following pages will break down each of the above 
three elements into their component parts.

Summary and Conclusions 


If you want to be free and protect your 
sovereignty then you: 
— HAVE to retain a PRIVATE status and PRIVATE property. 


— Cannot pursue any privilege, public status, public benefit, 
or public right in the context of your interactions with any 
government. 


— Cannot associate public property such as government 
identifying numbers with PRIVATE property without 
converting private property to public property and 
committing a FRAUD. 

Private property and private rights are, in 
respect to the civil statutory law: 

— Foreign 

— Nonresident 


— Defensible with ONLY the common law and equity and 
not the statutory law

Introduction 


We saved the subject of propaganda and deception for 
last because it is the most complex and extensive. 


Before commencing your study of law and freedom on 
our site, it is important to know the LIES you will be 
told by a corrupted government that may needlessly 
confuse you. 


All such confusion was ENGINEERED by a covetous, 


lying, thieving government: 
“For where [government] envy and self-seeking [of 
money they are not entitled to] exist, confusion [and 
deception] and every evil thing will be there.” 
[James 3:16, Bible, NKJV] 
Since most people naturally AVOID things that are 
confusing, then they ultimately are likely to AVOID 
learning the truths found on our website. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Introduction 


¢ We therefore have a duty to warn you in 
advance of all the major sources of 
PROPAGANDA and FRAUD on the part of 
corrupted public servants. This will 
accelerate your freedom study, make you 
more confident of what we teach.

Audience for Propaganda 


In a free society, government propaganda is invented for 
people who do not want to hear the truth and who exercise 
idolatry toward government 


The Bible explains this plain fact as follows: 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 174 


6JUN2016 


Audience for Propaganda 


“Woe to the rebellious children,” says the Lord, “Who take counsel, but not 
of Me, and who devise plans, but not of My Spirit, that they may add sin to 
sin; who walk to go down to Egypt (District of Criminals), and have not asked 
My advice, to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh (the DE 
FACTO GOVERNMENT), and to trust in the shadow of Egypt! Therefore the 
strength of Pharaoh shall be your shame, and trust in the shadow of Egypt 


shall be your humiliation... 


Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and note it on a scroll, that it may be 
for time to come, forever and ever: that this is a rebellious people, lyin 


children, children who will not hear [and learn, and obey] the law of the Lord; 


who say to the seers, “Do not see,” and to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to 
us right things’ Speak to us smooth [politically correct] things, prophes 


deceits. Get out of the way, turn aside from the path, cause the Holy One of 
Israel to cease from before us.” 


Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel: 


“Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perversity, and 
rely on them, therefore this iniquity shall be to you like a breach ready to fall, 
a_ bulge in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly, in an instant. And 
He shall break it like the breaking of the potter’s vessel, which is broken in 


pieces; He shall not spare. So there shall not be found among its fragments 
a_ shard to take fire from the hearth, or to take water from the cistern.” 


[Isaiah 30:1-3, 8-14, Bible, NKJV]

Inconvenient Truths Avoided or

We don’t HAVE a “government” as legally 
defined, but a private, for profit MAFIA that 
terrorizes all those who refuse to pay them 
“protection money” at the point of a gun. See 
Form #05.043. 


You are a SLAVE if they have the ability to 


impose any civil duty or obligation against 
you WITHOUT proving you consented to them 
every time they want to enforce them. 


Governments cannot lawfully or 
constitutionally use their taxing powers to 
redistribute wealth and if they do, they area 
THIEF and NOT a “government”.

6JUN2016 


Inconvenient Truths Avoided or 
Concealed by Propaganda 


If the government can take from the rich to 
give to the poor, then NO ONE can own 
property because we are all equal. 


A government that has more powers than you 
is a false GOD and an unconstitutional 
religion. 


The minute you ask for ANY kind of handout 
from the government is the minute you cease 
to be free and become a pauper with no 
rights. 


A government that prints money through the 
Federal Reserve is engaged in criminal 


counterfeiting and THEFT.

Inconvenient Truths Avoided or

Purpose of Government Propaganda 


6JUN2016 


Conceal the pain of reality. 


Destroy critical thinking skills and replace INDIVIDUAL 
thinking with COLLECTIVIST thinking. 


Destroy your confidence in your own reasoning 
abilities. 
Discredit and slander political dissidents. 


Condition audience to simultaneously believe 
contradictory ideas. Orwell calls this “doublethink”’. 


Create cognitive dissonance in subject matters that 
they don’t want you learning about. This causes a 
mental block to further investigation. 


Expand and perpetuate the power and influence of civil 
rulers at YOUR expense. 


Euphemize THEFT of more of your money and property 
by a corrupted government.

Fallacies 


¢ All government deception and propaganda 
relies on fallacies. 


¢ Definition: Fallacy 
— 1. A false notion. 


— 2. A statement or an argument based on a false or 
invalid inference. 


— 3. Incorrectness of reasoning or belief; erroneousness. 
— 4. The quality of being deceptive. 
¢ You MUST think critically and question everything 
government says or publishes in order to avoid 
government deception. 


QUESTION AUTHORITY! 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


It is the first 
responsibility of 
every citizen to 


question authority. 


- Benjamin Franklin 
(1706 - 1790) 


Types of Fallacies 


Fallacy by equivocation: A fallacy based on the use of the 
same term in different senses or contexts, esp as the middle 
term of a syllogism, as the badger lives in the bank, and the 
bank is in the High Street, so the badger lives in the High 
Street 


Fallacy by oversimplification or appeal to ignorance: To 
cause distortion or error by extreme simplification of a 
subject. 


Appeal to emotions: Appealing to emotions rather than to 


logic or reason. Telling you that you will be HURT if you 
don’t accept their approach, for instance, or abusing their 
undeserved trust in you to convince you of something. 


Fallacy ad hominem: Appealing to personal considerations 
rather than to logic or reason by attacking your critic. 


Fallacy based on popularity: Everyone believes it therefore it 
must be true. This includes tradition, common practice, etc. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Types of Fallacies 


Fallacy of many questions: Logic the rhetorical trick of 
asking a question that cannot be answered without admitting 
a presupposition that may be false, as have you stopped 
beating your wife? This is also called a “leading question” in 
legal discovery. 


Two wrongs make aright: Your opponent does it so you can 
do it. Therefore, there is no need to justify the correctness of 
the approach. 


Red herring: Distract attention away from the main issue 
with less important issues. 


False dilemma and slippery slope: Present two options with 
one much less desirable so people pick the one you want. Or 
rationalize the next step in the direction you want to go. 
Telling you that you will go to jail if you don’t do the thing 
even though doing it is ALSO illegal. This is how Obama got 
elected because McCain was such a loser.

6JUN2016 


Most Important Fallacies 


The MOST important fallacies most 


prevalently used by corrupt politicians and 
lawyers are: 


— Equivocation: Confusing contexts for “words of art”. 


— Appeal to emotions: Telling you that you will be injured 
or hurt by learning or doing something.

Government Deception: George Orwell 


“Doublethink means the power of [hypocritically] 
holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind 
simultaneously, and accepting both of them.” 


[George Orwell] 


“During times of universal deceit, telling the truth 
becomes a revolutionary act.” 


[George Orwell] 


“Political chaos is connected with the decay of 
language... one can probably bring about some 
improvement by starting at the verbal end.”

“Political language... is designed to make lies

PROPAGANDA

Creating and Appealing to Your Legal Ignorance 


¢ Public schools deliberately teach students 
NOTHING about law or litigation. 


¢ The absence of legal education in public 
schools has made the legal profession into 
the equivalent of a “priesthood” and the judge 
into a priest of an unconstitutional CIVIL 
RELIGION. 


¢ Presumption: 


— Serves as a substitute for facts or evidence, even 
though this violates due process of law. 


— Serves as a substitute for “faith” in a religious 
context. This turns the courtroom into a religious 
exercise, the “court” into a church, and “hearings” 
into a religious ceremony to which government or 
civil rulers are obeyed and thus “worshipped”. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 194 


Manufactured Legal lgnorance 


¢ "Politicians prefer unarmed and illiterate 
peasants who are surety for public debt and 
peons!" 

¢ "POLITICS": (Greek "POLY"= many) + 
("TICS"= blood sucking insects) 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


6JUN2016 


Untrustworthy Publications 


Courts and IRS both say you can’t trust ANYTHING the 
government says or publishes, other than positive law 
itself. 


"IRS Publications, issued by the National Office, explain 
the law in plain language for taxpayers and their 
advisors... While a good source of general information, 
publications should not be cited to sustain a position." 
[Internal Revenue Manual, Section 4.10.7.2.8 (05-14- 


1999)] 


The publications are grossly oversimplified and 
abused as a way to persuade people politically but 
avoid exposing factual and legal conflicts they 
propose. 


This oversimplification of the publications leads to 
fallacy by equivocation, oversimplification, and appeal 
to ignorance. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


Untrustworthy Publications 


¢ The main thing that makes government 
publications DECEPTIVE at best and FALSE 
at worst is because: 
— They refuse to define key terms like “State”, “United 
States”, “citizen”, “Employee”, “taxpayer”, etc. 
— They PRESUME the ordinary meaning of statutory 
terms and yet ENFORCE the legal meaning. 


— CRIME, PERJURY, and VIOLATION OF DUE 
PROCESS result from PRESUMING the ordinary 
meaning of words. 

— They refuse to obey the rules of statutory 
construction pertaining to “includes”. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Untrustworthy Publications 


¢ QUESTION: If the courts say you can’t trust 
anything the government publishes or says, 
then WHY in God’s name would you want to 
sign a government form under penalty of 
perjury stating that it is factual and truthful? 
— Shouldn’t the government or someone in the 
government at least have the SAME risk in ensuring 
the accuracy of THEIR forms and publications? 
— Doesn't this violate the constitutional requirement 
for equal protection and equal treatment?

Fraud with Government Forms 


Purpose of government forms is to associate you with a civil 
or legal or franchise status that they can regulate and 
control, usually illegally. 


The most important block on government forms is the 
STATUS block, such as “individual”, “taxpayer”, etc. 


At agencies that accept government forms, they will speak of 
the franchise status on the form as a 
POLITICAL/CONSTITUTIONAL status but secretly PRESUME 
itis a LEGAL STATUTORY STATUS. This is the heart of 
“FORM FRAUD” perpetrated by a corrupt government. 


All IRS forms are “taxpayer” forms. You can’t use any IRS 
form as a “nontaxpayer” without doing one of the following: 


— Providing a mandatory attachment that defines all terms to make 
you a nontaxpayer or not a government “customer” called a 
“person”. 


— Modifying it to add “nontaxpayer” status 
— Providing your own form. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 199 


6JUN2016 


Word/Spin Doctoring 


“LAW”: Means your PRIVATE LAW public officer “employee” 


agreement, not that which applies EQUALLY to ALL. You 
have to VOLUNTEER to be such a public officer before it 
applies to YOU. 


“TAX”: What you pay is not a “tax” as legally defined. 
“taxes” cannot be paid to private citizens and can only be 
used for the support of government. If they are, the 
government is a THIEF and a ROBINHOOD. 


“GOVERNMENT”: They are NOT a government if they won’t 
protect your PRIVATE rights from injury by THEM WITHOUT 
paying them a bribe. They are a PROTECTION racket that 
you have to BRIBE to get them to simply leave you alone. 


“COURT”: Franchise courts are not “courts” ina 
constitutional sense. Constitutional courts are ONLY in the 
Judicial Branch. Franchise courts are Executive Branch 
agencies and “boards”, or “arbitration boards”. The original 
“Tax Court” was called the “Board of Tax Appeals”, and it 
was FRAUDULENTLY renamed to disguise its nature as a 
NON-COURT. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


6JUN2016 


Word/Spin Doctoring 


“RETURN”: You can’t “RETURN” what never belonged 
to the government to begin with. Only PUBLIC 
OFFICERS who ALREADY work for the government 
can “RETURN” anything. 

“INTERNAL”: The word “INTERNAL” within 
“INTERNAL Revenue Service (I.R.S.)” means 
INTERNAL to the GOVERNMENT, not INTERNAL to the 
CONSTITUTIONAL GEOGRAPHICAL “United States”. 
See Form #05.005. 


“CITIZEN”: Does not mean a CONSTITUTIONAL citizen 


(also called a statutory “non-citizen national”), but a 
public officer franchisee in the U.S. government. 
“RESIDENT”: Means a party consenting to act as a 
public officer/statutory “employee”, and has NOTHING 
to do with any geographic place. The equivalent of a 
government contractor. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


6JUN2016 


Word/Spin Doctoring 


“YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER”: It’s only “YOURS” if 
you are working as a public officer AT THAT TIME. Otherwise 
it’s “THEIRS” and a FRAUD to call it “YOURS” according to 
20 C.F.R. §422.103(d). See Form #05.012. 


“STATE”: A legal “person” and federal corporation and NOT 
a geographic territory. All those who are “IN this State” in 
fact are voluntarily serving as public officers WITHIN the 
legal person “State” as an AGENT of said “person”. See 
Form #05.024.

Courts “Shaping the Law” 


The U.S Supreme Court says that the purpose of 
appellate courts is to “shape the law”. 
What they really mean by “shaping the law” is: 


— To perpetuate and protect the unconstitutional 
INEQUALITY that is the source of ALL of their power. 


— To protect the CRIMINAL activities of fellow public 
servants. 


— To abuse language to achieve political objectives. 


— To cause the courts to thereby act in a “political 
capacity” in violation of the separation of powers. 


— To deceive the public about what the law requires. 


— To censor critical information about violations of rights 
by the government from the rulings of the court. 


The remainder of this presentation will focus on HOW 
both courts and lawyers “shape the law”.

¢ George Orwell identified how courts “shape the law” as 
follows: 


“The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. 
When there is a gap between one's real and one's 
declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to 
long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish 
spurting out ink. “

Confusing “domicile” with “residence” 


¢ Courts and lawyers frequently try to confuse 
“domicile” with “residence”. 


¢ Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 17(b) 
mandates that all civil statutory law used in 
civil litigation must derive ONLY from the civil 
domicile of the parties. 


¢ Meaning of “resident”: 
— In most statutory law: a government contractor 
participating in franchises. 


— Common law: A FOREIGN NATIONAL with a DOMICILE 
within the territory of the government to which the term 
relates.

Confusing “domicile” with “residence” 


“26 C.F.R. §301.7701-5 Domestic, foreign, resident, and nonresident 
persons. 


A domestic corporation is one organized or created in the United States, 
including only the States (and during the periods when not States, the 
Territories of Alaska and Hawaii), and the District of Columbia, or under 
the law of the United States or of any State or Territory. A foreign 
corporation is one which is not domestic. A domestic corporation is a 
resident corporation even though it does no business and owns no 
property in the United States. A foreign corporation engaged in trade or 
business within the United States is referred to in the regulations in this 
chapter _as a resident foreign corporation, and a foreign corporation not 
engaged in trade or business within the United States, as a nonresident 
foreign corporation. A partnership engaged in trade or business within the 
United States is referred to in the regulations in this chapter as a resident 
partnership, and a partnership not engaged in trade or business within the 
United States, as a nonresident partnership. Whether a partnership is to 
be regarded _as_resident_or nonresident is not determined by the 
nationality or residence of its members or by the place in which it was 
created or organized.

Abusing “includes” and “including” 


¢ The words “includes” and “including” are 
chronically abused to: 


— Allow government workers to add or PRESUME 
ANYTHING they want to statutory definitions. 


— Remove ALL limits on the delegated authority of the 
government. This violates the Tenth Amendment 
and turns the government into a COMMUNIST 
government. 


— Illegally expand the implied meaning of statutory 
definitions. 


— Unlawfully enlarge federal jurisdiction beyond 
federal territory and thereby achieve an 
unconstitutional result. 


— Cause the reader to believe things that simply are 
NOT true.

Abusing “includes” and “including” 


¢ The “Rules of Statutory Construction” 
FORBID adding any thing or class of thing to 
statutory definitions: 
— Statutory definitions REPLACE rather than 
ENLARGE ordinary meanings. 


— When statutory definitions are provided, they 
SUPERCEDE rather than ENLARGE the ordinary or 
common or English meaning of words. 


¢ Why is this? Because the law functions as a 
LIMITATION of power on GOVERNMENT, and 


cannot do so if the DEFINITIONS are not 
limiting.

The ability to discern CONTEXT is usually that LAST 
skill that one develops when learning law because it 
requires so many other skills to fully master.

key to your legal chains, SLAVE.

contemplated _in_the Constitution [meaning that FEDERAL _ statutory 
"States" are EXCLUDED], . . . and excludes from the term the signification 


attached to it by writers on the law of nations.' This case was followed in 
Barney v. Baltimore, 6 Wall. 280, 18 L. ed. 825, and quite recently in Hooe 
v. Jamieson, 166 U.S. 395 , 41 L. ed. 1049, 17 Sup. Ct. Rep. 596. The same 
rule was applied to citizens of territories in New Orleans v. Winter, 1

territory from the District of Columbia. But it was said that 'neither of them 
is a state in the sense _in which that term is used in the Constitution.‘

exclusion of another. When certain persons or things are specified in a law, contract, or will, 


an intention to exclude all others from its operation may be inferred. Under this maxim, if

maliciously and carelessly used by government employees 
on forms and in ordinary speech. 


They are most often all falsely PRESUMED to be equivalent at 
the federal level, even though they are NOT. 


Confusion over these two terms even infects the freedom 
community and causes needless arguments about the 
following: 

— Citizenship. 

— Whether the Fourteenth Amendment made us all federal slaves. 

— Federal jurisdiction.

words and HOW they interact with each other is crucial to

Is a product of birth or naturalization and NOT domicile. 
¢ Domicile: 
Is a CIVIL/LEGAL status. 
Cannot be acquired WITHOUT the EXPRESS consent of the person. 
Is not even addressed in the Constitution. 
Is defined by civil statutory law RATHER than the Constitution. 
Is in NO WAY connected with one’s nationality. 


Is usually connected with the word “person”, “citizen”, “resident”, or 
“inhabitant” in statutory law. 


Is associated with a specific COUNTY and a STATE rather than a 
COUNTRY. 


Implies one is a “SUBJECT” of a SPECIFIC MUNICIPAL but not NATIONAL

Definition: 
“nationality — That quality or character which arises from the fact 
of a person's belonging to a nation or state. Nationality

[legal/statutory] status. Nationality arises either by birth or by 


naturalization.“

— Domiciled on federal territory 
— STATUTORY “U.S. citizen” subject to CIVIL “acts of Congress” (law for

Confusing PUBLIC rights with PRIVATE rights 


6JUN2016 


Politicians often try to confuse the two types 
of rights by calling BOTH “rights” and 
refusing to distinguish whether they are 
public or private: 

— Public rights 

— Private rights 


We talked about this type of abuse in Video 3 
of this series, and so did Judge Napolitano’s 
segment within that video. 


The purpose for this deliberate confusion is 
to entice or deceive you to participate in 
government franchises in order to give up 
your rights and the protections of the 
Constitution and the common law:

Confusing PUBLIC rights with PRIVATE rights 


6JUN2016 


The words "privileges" and "immunities," like the greater 
part of the legal phraseology of this country, have been 
carried over from the law of Great Britain, and recur 
constantly either as such or in equivalent expressions 
from the time of Magna Charta. For all practical purposes 
they are synonymous in meaning, and originally signified 
a_peculiar_right or private _law_ conceded to particular 
persons or places whereby a certain individual or class of 
individuals was exempted from the rigor of the common 
law. Privilege or immunity is conferred upon any person 
when he is invested with a legal claim to the exercise of

Confusing PUBLIC rights with PRIVATE rights 


¢ NOTE the term “special or peculiar 
rights”. Anything that is SPECIAL or 
PECULIAR: 
— Is SPECIAL law. 
— Is PRIVATE law. 


— Can acquire the “force of law” ONLY by your 
EXPRESS consent in some form. 


— Is being MISREPRESENTED if it is called “law” 
WITHOUT adding the word “PRIVATE” in front of it.

Confusing PUBLIC rights with PRIVATE rights 


¢ To protect yourself from false presumptions 
about “rights” caused by this abuse of 
language, we recommend the following 
approach: 


— Presume that the “right” they are referring to is PUBLIC 
and not PRIVATE by default. 


— Insist that the “right” does NOT belong to you as a 
PRIVATE person. 


— Ask them WHICH of the two they mean. 


— If you don’t get an answer, then continue to presume that 
it is a PUBLIC right and privilege.

Confusing the BODY CORPORATE with the BODY POLITIC 


¢ All governments consist of BOTH a “body politic” AND 
a “body corporate”. 
— To be “in the body POLITIC” is to be DOMICILED on the 
geographical land composing the body POLITIC. 
— To be “in the BODY CORPORATE” means to be SERVING AS A 
PUBLIC OFFICER in the BODY CORPORATE as a FRANCHISEE. 
¢ It is VERY common for people in government to: 
— Ask you whether you were “in the State”. 


— Falsely PRESUME that a statutory “State” ALWAYS means a 
geographic place. It DOES NOT. 


— Refuse their burden of proving WHICH of the above two contexts 
they mean by “State”. 


— Evade or refuse to answer questions from you about WHICH of 
the two context they mean. 
¢ By doing all the above, they are unlawfully enlarging 
government jurisdiction to reach PRIVATE people 
beyond their control.

Confusing the BODY CORPORATE with the BODY POLITIC 


6JUN2016 


If someone asks you if you are “in THIS 
State”, they could mean: 
1. Are you CONSENSUALLY domiciled within the physical 
geography of the BODY POLITIC....OR 


2. Are you serving as a public officer franchisee in the 
BODY CORPORATE. You can be LEGALLY “within” the 
BODY CORPORATE as a legal person by serving as 
public officer in the corporation. 


In statutory law, the SECOND option above is 
usually SILENTLY PRESUMED by the judge or 
your government opponent, because they 
can’t regulate PRIVATE people who don’t 
have compacts or contracts with them.

Confusing the BODY CORPORATE with the BODY POLITIC 


¢ To avoid the adverse consequences of 
this malicious tactic, simply respond 
by saying that you are: 
— “ON the land” but not “IN the State”. This keeps 


your feet firmly planted on land protected by the 
Constitution and the Common law. 


— Domiciled WITHOUT the STATUTORY “United 
States” and “State” in all government law.

Confusing “Law” with “Compact” or “Franchise” 


“Law” in a common law or classical sense applies 
EQUALLY to ALL because ALL are EQUAL. 


A “compact” or “franchise”, which are agreements or 
contracts, only acquire the “force of law” and become 
“law” binding on the parties AFTER they consent. 


Before someone consents to a compact or franchise, 
it: 

— It is NOT “law” for them. 

— Has no “force of law”. 

— Is nothing more than a PROPOSED relationship requiring 

consent to acquire the “force of law”. 

Examples of franchises include the civil portions of the 
following: 

— Family Code. 

— Vehicle Code. 

— Tax Code.

Confusing “Law” with “Compact” or “Franchise” 


¢ In truth, compacts and franchises are 
“PRIVATE LAW”, but NOT “Law” as 
defined here. 


¢ Those who call compacts or franchises 
“law” without adding “private” in front 


of it are deceiving you. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org 


Confusing “Law” with “Compact” or “Franchise” 


“Municipal law, thus understood, Is properly defined to be "a 
rule of civil conduct prescribed by the supreme power in a 
state, commanding what is right and prohibiting what Is 
wrong." 


[L..] 


It is also called a rule to distinguish it from_a compact or 
agreement; for a compact is a promise proceeding from _us, 
law is a command directed to us. The language of a compact 
is, "Il will, or will not, do this": that of a law Is, "thou shalt, or 
shalt_not, do it." It_is true there is an obligation which_a 
compact carries with it, equal in point of conscience to that 
of a law; but then the original of the obligation is different. In 
compacts we ourselves determine and promise what shall be 
done, before we are obliged to do it; in laws. we are obliged 
to act without ourselves determining or promising anything 
at all. Upon these accounts law is defined to be "a rule."

Court Rulings as Propaganda 


The rules of civil procedure dictate WHAT law may be cited 
by the parties to a civil suit. See Federal Rule of Civil 
Procedure 17(b). 
Most states have civil rules similar to the federal rules. 
These rules require that ONLY civil law from the DOMICILE of 
the defendant may be cited. This civil law includes ONLY: 

— Civil statutes from the domicile of the defendant. 

— Case law where the defendant had a similar domicile. 


States of the Union are legislatively but not constitutionally 
foreign in respect to the national government. Hence, NO 
FEDERAL LAW may be cited against a party domiciled ina 
CONSTITUTIONAL but not STATUTORY “State”. 


The ONLY exception to the above is if the party is 
representing a government corporation, in which case his 
domicile becomes that of the government that granted the 
corporation franchise.

(3) for all other parties, by the law of the state where the court is

(A) a partnership or other unincorporated association with no such 
capacity under that state's law may sue or be sued in its common 
name to enforce a substantive right existing under the United States

Court Rulings as Propaganda 


Any of the following tactics constitute an 
abuse of case law or civil law as a means of 
PROPAGANDA and result in a VOID 
judgment: 


— Any attempt to cite civil statutes from a territory in which 
the party is not domiciled. 


— Any attempt to cite case law against you which involved 


parties who do not have the same domicile as YOU. 


— Any attempt to imply that the civil law has the “force of 
law” against a NONRESIDENT party who is NOT 
“purposefully availing himself” of commerce within the 
forum. 


— Any attempt to treat a NONRESIDENT as a RESIDENT for 
any subject matter that they are NOT “purposefully 
availing” themselves of commerce in the forum.

Specific violations which occur for the above 
abuses: 


— Violation of the separation of powers, because the court

Falsely Calling You “Frivolous” 


¢ Closely related to the abuse of law as propaganda 
against nonresidents who are NOT subject, is the 
abuse of the term “frivolous” mainly by judges and 
administrative personnel to falsely and fraudulently try 
to discredit litigants. 


¢ How this term is abused: 


— Most of the time, the term REALLY means that you are a heretic 
who won’t participate in their “religion” of presumption and 
servitude. 


When this term is used WITHOUT providing legal evidence of 
why your approach is based on FALSE information or 
inferences, the term is being abused to violate due process of 
law. It is a violation of due process of law to say your statement 
is false without evidence on the record PROVING it is false. 


Even when evidence proving the falseness of your approach is 
presented, usually it violates Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 
17(b) because it does not derive from your domicile and 
therefore is IRRELEVANT and in fact FRIVOLOUS. 


6JUN2016 Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 249 


Falsely Calling You “Frivolous” 


¢ Main defense for government misuse 
of “frivolous” is to: 


— Warn your opponent in your correspondence 
BEFORE they respond that: 


» They must provide legal evidence signed under 


penalty of perjury as required by 26 U.S.C. §6065 
PROVING that your approach is incorrect. 


» The evidence they present in a civil dispute MUST 
derive from your domicile, which means NO federal 
law, and that all cases cited must involve similarly 
domiciled parties. This is a requirement of Federal 
Rule of Civil Procedure 17(b). 

If you aren’t domiciled on federal territory and aren’t 


representing an entity so domiciled, then federal law 
is IRRELEVANT and INAPPOSITE. 


— Define the term “frivolous” on every form you 
submit to mean “truthful, accurate, and consistent 
with prevailing law”.

“Individual” rather than “man/woman” 


Public servants and especially law enforcement personnel 
have been conditioned to refer to biological men and women 
as “individuals”. Watch a few police shows and you will see. 


The only block that a man or woman filling out a government 
form can often check is “individual” rather than simply 
“PRIVATE man” or “PRIVATE woman”. This is true on the 
IRS form W-8BEN, for instance, in block 3. 


A statutory “individual” in the Internal Revenue Code is a 
public office in the government. See Form #05.008. 


The purpose of converting men/women to individuals is to 
recruit them as public officers in the government subject to 
statutory law. 


The U.S. Supreme Court refers to the word “individual” as a 
corporation sole. 
“At common law, a "corporation" was an "artificial perso[n] endowed with 


the legal capacity of perpetual succession" consisting either of a single 
individual (termed _a_ "corporation sole") or of a collection of several 
individuals (a "corporation aggregate"). 3 H. Stephen, Commentaries on 
the Laws of England 166, 168 (1st Am. ed. 1845).”

Remember that nearly all of the governments civil enforcement 
powers derive from control over PUBLIC PROPERTY, which includes 
civil statutory statuses. If you don’t want to be enforced against, 
quit volunteering by claiming the “benefits” of ANY statutory civil 
status, because they are all offices within the government.

impose civil obligations. See:

Summary and Conclusions 


A corrupted government loves your MONEY more than 
they love the job they were elected to do of protecting 
your PRIVATE rights. 


They have dumbed down the populace on law and 
turned the legal profession into a priesthood that 
worships and obeys ONLY rulers and governments 
instead of the sovereign people they work for. 


They have engaged in a systematic campaign to abuse 
LAW against nonresidents as a form of PROPAGANDA, 
mind control, thought control, and damage control. 


“Courts” have been unconstitutionally POLITICIZED by 
replacing them with FRANCHISE courts/boards (such 
as the Tax Court, Traffic Court, Family Court) and 
moving them into the Executive Branch. 


They have used fallacious and deceptive publications 
that oversimplify the subject matter to deceive the 
public into alleged obligations that they do not have. 


Foundations Of Freedom, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) hittp://sedm.org 


6JUN2016 


Summary and Conclusions 


They have spun their terminology to make it politically 
unpopular to challenge their criminal activities. 


When they are confronted with the evidence of criminal 
conspiracy against your rights, they claim ignorance 
and call you “frivolous” in order to deceitfully protect 
their plausible deniability. 


The remedy is to get educated on law and oppose their 


propaganda politically, administratively, and in the 
courtroom. 


We provide a large and growing library of forms that 
fills your administrative record with uncontroverted 


evidence of their criminal activities and correctly 
defines all legal terms to render such propaganda 
ineffective and expose it for the FRAUD that it is. This 
serves as a strong defense against criminal 
prosecutions effected in the ILLEGAL and 
UNCONSTITUTIONAL administration of government.
